    • Trivia
      Based on Dan Aykroyd's personal experiences. In 1978, he was pulled over for speeding in a rural town in the Northeastern United States. The police officer took him to the local Justice of the Peace in the middle of the night for a trial.
    • Goofs
      When Chevy Chase is about to enter the mouth of the Bonestripper, we hear him scream things like "Oh, God, no," and "Please stop," but his mouth doesn't move.

      Miss Purdah: [Chris is chained and Eldona is trying on outfits before him] Eldona, you know he's not supposed to see you this special day?

    I liked this movie
    Okay, Okay. This wasn't the funniest or even the best movie ever made, but it certainly wasn't the worst. I thought the humor was great and I loved all the characters, although the huge baby twins were really disgusting. I loved Dan Akroyd in this movie. I loved the way his character talked and his makeup effects were great. I miss John Candy terribly. He was always funny in whatever movie he starred in. I think he was one of the greatest comic actors ever. He was the highlight of this movie. I loved both his characters, Dennis and Eldona. I think "Nothing But Trouble" would be classified as a black comedy but it was a good black comedy. I can understand why most of you would think this was a bad movie but there are definitely worse movies than this one out there. This movie was funny, entertaining, and not at all boring. I would definitely recommend this one to anyone who likes black comedies and to anyone who likes Dan Akroyd and liked John Candy. I don't particularly care for Demi Moore but I liked her in this movie. And Chevy Chase was funny like always. Like I said, this wasn't the best movie ever made but it wasn't the worst. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and I'm glad that it was made. Thank you for reading my review.
